Kwasi Nyarko-Ofei famously known as Root Eye, who is the Director of Reggae and Dancehall for the Musicians Union of Ghana (MUSIGA), has expressed his views about Reggae music that in the Ghana Reggae music really needs a facelift.
On his appointment, while speaking on Media Channel, Root Eye said despite of the fact that he is yet to be told his job description, he was certain his office will be tasked to make the genre more engaging and tempting.
He said on media news that “It ought to be anticipated of me to move reggae music in Ghana onwards in a better direction. The thought is to give reggae music a facelift in Ghana in light of the fact that there have been a few misapprehensions towards reggae music in Ghana so despite the fact that Ghanaians love reggae music deep down, regardless we can’t accept our reggae music. A couple of peoples have even said if Rocky Dawuni had lived in Ghana, he wouldn’t have been perceived at the Grammys platform. So I believe that there must be a facelift.
Root Eye, known for his Heaviest Rain song, brought up the idea that any dreadlock wearing individual can do reggae would be looked into as one of the approaches to clean up the framework. He was miserable that most Ghanaian reggae songs had no message to affect the public or have any impact on Ghanaians.
Kwasi Nyarko-Ofei noted that we have to do a few attempts to clean the face of reggae music… It might include to get people involved who are not reggae music artists finding diverse employments and moving far from reggae music. We additionally should clean the lyrics up. I think reggae music in Ghana has dependably been ‘burn this, burn that’ and you don’t hear anything. You can tally just a couple of musicians who are doing extraordinary music.
